This was everything I’ve ever wanted for Nico. I am SO happy he got a book, and for so many things within the book I don’t want to share because ✨ spoilers ✨ but wow. I’m sitting here with a huge grin on my face. That ending? So feel good. I think the only thing I didn’t love the most was the back and forth of the first 60ish percent in the audiobook form. It probably would’ve been totally fine in physical book form because of clues within the formatting. But as an audiobook there were times where I was confused if we were in a flashback, the present, or the beginning? Either way I was always able to figure it out and enjoy the story. It was such a heart filling quest and I really enjoyed this book.

the ending bit with nyx got a bit weird for me but all in all it was great and I really enjoyed it. I loved the rep and choosing love and one another because love is ultimately a choice and it was great to see it written out like this
